Error Correction Code Validation

7. The memory device of claim 1, wherein the ECC circuitry checker includes a multiplexer circuit configured to, in response to a read request to the memory device, substitute check ECC data for ECC data of memory data for the read request.

8. The memory device of claim 1, wherein the ECC circuitry checker is configured to substitute the ECC data with the check ECC data in response to a command received from a separate device.

9. The memory device of claim 1, wherein the ECC circuitry checker includes a finite state machine configured to recurrently substitute the ECC data with the check ECC data and compare the output of the ECC circuitry to the expected output.

10. The memory device of claim 1, wherein the memory cells include non-volatile memory cells.

11. The memory device of claim 1, wherein the memory cells include one or more of static random access memory (SRAM) cells, static dynamic random access memory cells (SDRAM) cells, and memory register cells.

14. The peripheral device of claim 12, wherein the bus ECC circuitry checker is configured to force an error in read data placed on the bus in response to a read request received by the peripheral device.

15. The peripheral device of claim 12, wherein the bus ECC circuitry checker includes ECC decoding circuitry configured to check ECC data received in the write request.
